Compact, robuste et riche en fonctionnalités, le DSC-WX1 propose un capteur CMOS ExmorR de 10,2 mégapixels. Celui-ci offre une probante réception de la lumière, pour une image irréprochable, même dans les endroits sombres. De plus, le processeur BIONZ du DSCWX1, épaulé par un réducteur de bruit numérique Clear RAW NR, empêche l'obscurité de gâcher vos meilleurs clichés. Des détecteurs de sourire et de visages avec suivi garantissent par ailleurs des portraits réussis. Le balayage panoramique saisit, lui, une série d'images à la volée pour les recombiner en une très large et restituer des paysages à couper le souffle. Le DSC-WX1 bénéficie en outre d'un stabilisateur optique qui contribue à réduire le flou. Ainsi, son optique Sony G avec zoom 20-120 mm (équivalent 24x36) donne un maximum de précision dans les circonstances les plus improbables. Enfin, il vous permet de profiter de modes vidéo et diaporama, pour partager vos images aussi bien sur téléviseur que sur papier. Less

Great Budget 6.2 MP Camera!

Pros Easy to navigate menu, inexpensive, 14 easily accessible shooting modes, crisp images,...
Cons LCD screen could be bigger, no red/blue filters, burst mode takes long to process

I recently acquired this camera through a silent auction and managed to pay only $175. I didn't really know anything about and just bought it because it had 6.2 megapixels and it was cheap. Now that I have had the camera for a couple of weeks, I have learned that this camera really packs quite a... Read full review »

When I found this camera as a special buy on the Wal-Mart web site at a price under $150 (which meant a 3... Read full review »

Cons Shutter lag.
Recommended it? Yes

I own this camera and the older version and have REALLY enjoyed both. This camera has a ton of options and is easy to figure out. The flash works great, pictures turn out well, the video works well, the battery lasts long. I tend to drop it a lot, so it has scratches, but not only... Read full review »

Pros Easy to Use, Excellent Picture Quality, Lightweight
Cons Short Battery Life, Shutter Lag
Recommended it? Yes

This camera is great for the price. It has easy features to learn and it lightweight enough to fit in your jeans pocket. We have owned this camera for about a year now and really like it. We use it on trips and just when an occassion pops up at home. A great camera to buy. Read full review »
